Report: Torn pectoral feared for Patriots defensive lineman Henry Anderson

The New England Patriots could be missing Henry Anderson for the remainder of 2021.

According to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport, the veteran defensive lineman is feared to have suffered a season-ending torn pectoral Sunday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The results of an MRI await for Anderson, who had exited with what the team announced as a chest injury. The 30-year-old was quickly downgraded from questionable to out for the remainder of New England’s 19-17 loss at Gillette Stadium after playing three snaps on defense and three snaps on special teams.
